After two hours, Lu Shu glimpsed at Mo Chengkong, his expressions slightly annoyed . “Captain Mo, that’s enough…”

“Are you still leaving?” Mo Chengkong asked .

“No! No! I promise I’m not leaving this time! Really!” Lu Shu replied impatiently .

“How should I trust you? It’s your 47th time saying that . ”

From the side, Chen Zuan suggested, one of his eyes swollen, “Ask him to deposit 1000 bucks . I’m sure he won’t leave like that . ”

One minute later, both of Chen Zuan’s eyes were purple and swollen . He pleaded, “Brother Mo, this is the most I can do . You will lose manpower if I continue to help you…”

In the past, Lu Shu had noticed that Chen Zuan was exceptionally naughty . He dared to piss off Gao Shenyin, Cheng Qiuqiao and Hao Zhichao . But now Lu Shu realized that Chen Zuan was not afraid of death .

Lu Shu took out 1000 yuan from his wallet, but took back 500 upon second thoughts . He passed it to Mo Chengkong and said, “Rest assured that I’m really not going anywhere this time…”

Mo Chengkong counted the notes and put it in his wallet . “I’ll return you the money once we get out of here . Don’t worry . ”

Only until then did the atmosphere in Team 42 return to normal .

Suddenly Mo Chengkong asked in high spirits, “Since you are my team members now, you have to listen to me . What are your levels, gentlemen?”

“Mid-Class D . ”

“Mid-Class D . ”

The two of them spoke simultaneously .

They exchanged a look of understanding .

Mo Chengkong grinned . “I’m at the peak of Class D . Now, I’ll introduce to you our defense line, and each one has a part to play in guarding it at night . ”

Then, the two of them listened carefully to Mo Chengkong’s summarized military strategies .

Soldiers from the sea were all clad in corroded bronze armor, and their only weapon was a trident . Most of them were Class D’s to E’s, with a few tough ones of Class C .

One might ask why they stuck to heavy metals like bronze in the sea . But it turned out that they liked it .

Moreover, they would vanished into a wisp of splendid powder after death, no corpses left behind .

Many people had engaged in close combat with the people of the sea, and all of them asserted that they looked almost identical to humans except for a slight tinge of blue in their skin . It was expected to see special organs like gills for underwater living, but they turned out to be non-existent too .

At this moment, Chen Baili flew back from the horizon . To Lu Shu’s surprise, the old man was hauling a very thick hemp robe, on which groups of students were holding tightly onto the robe in order not to fall .

“I was wondering how he could bring back so many people,” Lu Shu exclaimed, “And now he’s become a Chen Baili helicopter . ”

Chen Zuan whispered, “Do you still want to leave, Brother Shu? I feel that this team is really quite weak . Should we stay here to help them?”

Annoyed, Lu Shu answered, “Rest assured . I’m not leaving . ”

Then Lu Shu saw Chen Zuan rush off buoyantly . He glanced over to see a girl leaning against the stone wall with a book on her laps .

Du Xuemei!

Lu Shu suddenly understood why that little fatty was so eager to stay at all costs . It was because the girl of his dream was here!

How bloody romantic!

Du Xuemei was reading a book quietly . Maybe no one had thought of bringing a book into the remains, but Du Xuemei was uninterested in the surrounding activities either .

When the little fatty approached her, Du Xuemei looked up, her face filled with joy . Meanwhile, Lu Shu looked into the distance, distress all over his face . He should take things as they came, since Lu Xiaoyu was certainly safe amongst Class D and C losers from the sea .

Soon, Lu Shu saw Chen Zuan take out a few packs of food from his bag . Only then did Lu Shu notice that the students around looked rather skinny and pale .

Could it be there was a shortage of food supply on the island? Lu Shu had brought loads of food too, but only sufficient for two people to survive one month . It would be insignificant for the huge population now residing on the island .

Therefore, it would be wiser to figure out a way out of the remains rather than giving out his food .

As time trickled by, it was finally getting dark . Chen Zuan had returned to Lu Shu . He announced cheerfully, “Xuemei said that I’ve become tougher after my mission . She said I’m not as fat as before, I’m just chubby . ”

“Look how happy you are . You gave out your food?” Lu Shu asked .

“They are rather miserable now . Everyone has only prepared 15-days amount of food and now, ten days have passed . Their food has all been confiscated for fair distribution . ”

Lu Shu commented calmly, “It seemed that your granduncle has plans for a prolonged battle . He’s also uncertain where the relic is . I’m afraid it’s under the sea . ”

“I agree . ” Chen Zuan nodded . “But now, we don’t know their situations, nor the presence of other creatures underwater . So even my granduncle may not rashly venture there . After all, he has to use 30% of his power to protect himself against water in the sea . ”

The waiting time was painfully long . Chen Baili had finally finished the search in the last direction before sunset .

When darkness befell the world, stars had sprawled out in the night sky . At this time, the mirror surface had completely turned into a peaceful, windless ocean .

The reflection of stars and galaxies in the sea had almost turned it into a starry sky as well .

The view was breathtaking, as the universe unfolded its vastness and magnificence .

“It’d be just wonderful if this place were safe . It would be a paradise,” Mo Chengkong said, gazing into the sky and sea atop the defense line .

Suddenly a faint wave undulated outwards on the sea surface close to their defense . Lu Shu immediately pulled Mo Chengkong back . In a split second, a trident shot out from the sea towards where Mo Chengkong was standing . He would have been dead if Lu Shu was slightly slower!

That was not the end yet . Just when everybody held their breath in alarm, Lu Shu leaped up and grabbed hold of the flying trident . Then, he stood on the stone wall himself! In the next instant, three tridents shot towards him, but Lu Shu caught them at once!

Chen Zuan was dumbfounded . He murmured to Lu Shu’s lone figure on the wall, “Bo . . borrowing arrows with thatched boats 1?!”
